HER LIFE FOR HIS.

A gray mist hung over the lofty peak of
Terrapin mountain. No sound disturbed the
slumberous stiffness save the twittering Of
awakening birds and the irritable cough of
shy squirrels munching the hickory nnts gar
nered for the winters store.
Up from the massy depths of n gorge pale
blue smoke slowly assembled from the rock
chimney of mountaineers cabin. From the
door issued lass, whose 1.-the and graceful
figure seemed to float over the rock path which
led to the spring that gushed from the craggy
wall of prineval rocks above her.
Il wonder if Cap'n Earle is here,' she NUT
tered, as she placed the pail she had been carry
ing on the ground. Shading her blue eyes
from the rays of the now rising sun she peered
into the leafy darkness of the far-reaching
chasm. "He said he'd come eff he could git
away from his men. The cap'n he'd better be
pulling up sticks and gittin' out o here cause
dads mad an Jim Hefins mad, too An
when them air two git mad at a revenue man
thar's show to be trouble. Jim Helm an dad
he'd jus as we'll put tin their pipes an smoke
it, too, fer the capn amt goin' to git till he
ketches em. Dads done got the revenue men
down on him now fer maxim moonshne.
Thar's goin' to be trouble roun' Terapin
mounting yit.".
Talking thus to herself, she started ,blushed,
and turned quickly as she heard low whistle.
A tall, fne-looking young fellow stepped out
into the clearing around the spring.
Good morning, Mary; you are looking as
fresh and as pretty as that little mountain
pink. What news?'
The girl blushed to her ears as she faced him,
but looked him steadily in the eyes.
"Thar's goin' to he trouble round here to-
night cap'n, an dad swore last night he was
goin' to kill you for smashin his still on other
mounting. You better keep both eyes OPEN"
lis that all?' he asked, as lie came closer
to her.
"An't that enough?"
NO. Mary. am not afraid Of his threats.
/ fear your pretty face and blue eyes more
than l do moonshiners."
Look here, Cap'n Earle, l amt nothin'
but poor mounting gal, an l can't read or
write Keep them ere sugary things fer the
valley gals Say EN- to them as will take
'em."
As Mary said this she turned away. A
tremor was in her heart, sob in her voice.
She had grown TO love the handsome officer.
She loved him with the wild and impassioned
feryor Of a nature untaught, unframed. And
he, had he conceived such thing, would have
smiled n her simplicity. She turned to him
again.
'Oh, cap'n you must 90 down to the valley
tonight. Jim Helm and dad kill You. They
air not cause you foun' the still an smashed
it,
"Woll, Mary, I can't run from them. That
would be coWaruly. Besides, ! have ibis pro-
tector, slapping his Winchester rifle. That
is good for sixteen men"

Old Brown and his wife had gone TO bed

Not at sue, who had the chair
But at himself who had the floor,
And then lie pull'd his hair.
